Chapter 16 Onslaught
Hoffenheim players could hardly believe this situation. It was obvious that their side was pressing against the opponent to play, but the more they played harder the opponent, the easier it was to score the opponent.
Thinking of this, Hoffenheim players began to look confused, and they were a little confused.
attack?
They had a strong goalkeeper, who was cleared by the lightning speed goalkeeper and scored two goals.
Hoffenheim's head coach Frick's expression was as ugly as it was. He paid great attention to this warm-up match and made sufficient arrangements before the game, but everything could happen in football. Their sneak attack at the beginning was perfect, which caught Karlsruhe completely off guard, but in the end he fell behind one by one, which surprised him a little.
The second goal was almost exactly the same as the first goal, which disrupted his tactical arrangement and the players' mentality. Now it's 2-0, he has to make a choice, otherwise he will definitely lose this game. Although it's just a warm-up match, this is their hope before the start of this season. Before he can make a decision, the game will continue to start.
After the game started again, Hoffenheim seemed to be fooled, and the offense seemed to be inconsistent, but Karlsruhe's counterattack followed one after another. In just ten minutes, both sides contributed 10 shots. Karlsruhe occupied 7 times, while Hoffenheim only shot three times, without exception, Wu Feng seized the football tightly and did not even have the chance to make a follow-up shot.
However, thirty minutes later in the first half, and there was still time, Hoffenheim slowly calmed down. This time, Hoffenheim captain Mattia planned a beautiful attack.
After receiving a long diagonal pass from the backcourt, Mattia beautifully removed the football and avoided the Karlsruhe central defender Federico who was sliding forward with a casual change.
Then after leaning against another central defender, Bolcero, Mathia quickly distributed the ball to his striker Orhof who was inserted into the penalty area.
Orhoff kept kicking the ball back and knocked the ball back to the forward Betanigao at the front of the penalty area. Since Karlsruhe's central defender Stol and Eichner were all attracted by Orhoff who was inserted into the penalty area, Betanigao did not have a Karlsruhe defender! This was an excellent opportunity for Hoffenheim!
Betanigao did not make any adjustments this time, and immediately shot a strong shot against the football. The football flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal like a shell.
Just when everyone thought the score on the field was about to be tied, Wu Feng, the hero behind Karlsruhe, stepped forward again!
Faced with the fast-flying football, Wu Feng made a very beautiful leaping action, stretched out his hands to grab the football that was about to enter the net, but he still didn't even have a chance to shoot. Mattia, who was already preparing to follow up on the shot, could only retreat in disappointment.
Seeing the attack again, Hoffenheim's players were not discouraged, and soon they continued to make a comeback. At this time, Karlsruhe's three defenders were almost guarding in three corners of the penalty area, waiting nervously, and the midfielder was no longer too far ahead, only hovering near the center circle.
Mattia easily swiped past Polcero and passed it to Zescuti. Zescuti broke into the right side of the penalty area, and then the powerful shot was blocked by Gould from the near corner.
Orhoff, who had been actively running in the frontcourt, did not miss this opportunity. He removed the flying football from 15 yards on the right side of the penalty area and won a single shot again. But he did not dare to continue to drive the ball this time. He found that the Oriental goalkeeper of Karlsruhe had stared at him with cold eyes. He felt a numbness in his heart. He quickly raised his foot and pulled the football into the upper right corner of the goal.
However, this far-angle shot did not bring any excitement to Orhoff. He found that the football was like a black and white elf, and was once again grabbed and hugged in his arms by his cold hands. At this moment, he began to feel helpless and couldn't help but sigh and run back.
They had already shot three times in a row in the last time, and the angle of each shot was perfect. If it were an ordinary goalkeeper, he would have been scored twice. Unfortunately, when he met this goalkeeper from the East, he just took it easily and didn't even have the chance to make a follow-up shot.
In the 38th minute, Betanigao's powerful shot outside the edge of the penalty area was blocked by Stor again. Then Mattia, who followed, directly removed the football with her chest and rushed into the penalty area.
Stoll did not dare to make a foul in the penalty area, so she could only stick it up and wanted to squeeze Mathia out. However, Mathia did not entangle with Stoll. With a light knock, the football flew to Betani's high feet on the left.
Betanigao had already arrived in front of the small penalty area, but when he saw Wu Feng's expressionless eyes, his heart was numb, as if he saw the figure rushing towards him like lightning. He took two steps and hurriedly changed his strategy, raised his right foot high, and pulled the football with a "bang".
Football is like a rainbow, flying quickly to the lower right corner of the goal, but Wu Feng has long seen all this. His vision since he was a child can allow him to see things within a hundred meters clearly. Hoffenheim's forward is always just a player in the Division C League, and there is not much change in shooting skills. Wu Feng already knew the direction of their shots based on the shaking of their shoulders, and then with his speed, he easily grabbed the football in his hand.
If you want to pull a strong bow, it is impossible if your arms and wrists are not strong enough. The Wu family's martial arts is to train to become a sharpshooter. Wu Feng, who has been training since childhood, has a strong palm and arms, and the strength of his palms and arms is far greater than that of ordinary people, so such a volley is basically nothing to him.
Hoffenheim attacked hard, trying to narrow the gap in the score in the first half. They didn't want to enter the locker room with two points behind in the first half.
Hoffenheim's offensive direction was shooting left and right, Orhoff and Bettany were one high, one left and one right, and the five midfielders behind him were constantly attacking. For a moment, Karlsruhe's three defenders were like crumbling boats, which could be overturned at any time.
In the last two minutes of the first half, Mathia, who had been rushing to grab the ball, got the football again. After getting the ball, he immediately charged forward without stopping. His teammates trusted him very much.
Neither forward was waiting for the ball, and quickly ran forward to meet up, pulling the defenders on both sides, Zescuti followed closely from one side and stuck Stor.
